It is i586 and what is weird is that is says:
"Additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page"
huh.. no kidding? It also suggests to "Install the missing plugin"
Still sounds reasonable. But when you go to "install plugins" it shows
the following plugins available:
"Java Runtime Environment"
But when you click "next" to install the plugin, you get the message:
"Java Runtime Environment Not Available [ manual install ]"
Which takes you to the generic Sun java download page
http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp. I have never had any problems
with java and firefox. Why now? I know java is installed fine because
http://radar.weather.gov/radar.php?rid=SHV&product=N0R&overlay=11101111&loop=yes
works fine in konqueror.
Any other places to check?
